What The Hell Wednesday~47

Posted on the September 1st, 2010 under What The Hell Wednesday by Elle and Stacy

Wednesdays are great for Wordless and Wordful posts, but we decided to go a different route and create our own Wednesday fun. We figured what the hell. That’s how we started What The Hell Wednesday. Who are we kidding? That’s pretty much how we decide on almost everything. If you want to play along, grab our button on the sidebar, link up to us in your post and don’t forget to sign in to McLinky below. Really, what the hell?

Logging onto the website tonight to write my What The Hell’s for this week I see that we have 34 comments.  Yippee….oh no wait, they are all Spam comments!!  What The Hell?  Why can’t we have real comments and not stupid spammer one’s??  We’re funny dammit!!  I can’t wait until we finally “catch on”.

So last Friday I got a tattoo.  I’ve wanted another one for awhile now, and had warned my Mom so it wouldn’t be a big shock.  I got a semi-big butterfly on my back, no it’s not a tramp stamp, it’s just a butterfly tattoo.  When I showed it to people they would all ask the same question, “Did it hurt?”  What The Hell?  Seriously, it’s a tattoo!  They use very sharp needles into your skin, of course it hurt!!  Duh!

The kids are back to school now, well at least 2 days back to school.  The bus picks them both up at 6:40 a.m.  What The Hell??  6:40 a.m.??  Don’t they know I am not a morning person??  I am a night person, and getting up at 5:30 a.m. is really starting to mess with my night person activities!!! Like watching t.v. and using Facebook, doing laundry and cleaning….

In case you’ve been wondering What The Hell happened? Why haven’t those damn Blue Monkey Butt girls posted What The Hell Wednesdayyet? I was busy Skyping last night and then slept until 9:30. That’s right, I said 9:30! My kids still have one week of  summer vacation left and we are finally sleeping in. I don’t know What The Hell will happen in a week when we have to start getting up at 6:30 again.

Did you hear about Paris Hilton’s latest arrest? Apparently, or should I say allegedly, she had cocaine. Her super duper smart excuse? She thought it was gum. What The Freakin’ Hell?!! Gum? Is she so stupid that she thinks people buy that crap?

The news is just full of What The Hells this week. I just read about a doctor in California that first tried to force her way into her “on-again off-again” boyfriend’s house with a shovel. When that failed she got a ladder and tried going down the chimney. What The Hell was she thinking?! Ya….if you’re not the Grinch or Santa Claus it doesn’t work. I have to admit, every time I see the Grinch and see him get stuck “for a moment or two” it makes me uncomfortable.

Sending my youngest to Middle School was way harder than sending my oldest to Middle School!

Getting a tattoo on your spine for 2 hours will hurt like hell!

The lunch boxes that were on sale for school this year stunk!  I went to two different stores and still couldn’t find anything good!  Unless I wanted Hannah Montana or the Jonas Brothers, which my 10 and 12 year old boys did NOT want!

The 80’s / 90’s styles that are coming back are just scary!!  What is wrong with the fashion industry?  Who would think bringing back those fads would be a good idea?  Ugh!

There is no way I will be able to watch the Season Premiere of Hoarders this weekend!  In the commercial they show a house that is just infested with bugs, like maggots, and a opossum running around.  Okay, EWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

We still have one week of summer vacation. I think pretty much everyone else in America has started school, but not us. We’re still suffering loving these last days of summer vacation.

This morning when J-Man asked me for an ice cream come for breakfast I gave it to him. I think I’m beaten down from the heat and the constant I’m hungry, I want something, What can I have? all day long.

We did a little school shopping this weekend. Sissy knows what she likes and of course, what she doesn’t like. So far we’ve been able to agree, but it takes a while. Then I went over to the boys department with J-Man. I would hold up a shirt and ask “Do you like this one?” He’d shrug his shoulders and grunt some sort of response. Finally after doing this several times he looked at me and said “If you like it, I like it.”  To which I responded “I love you!” I’ve been doing clothes shopping for 3 girls for years and it’s never easy.

Hey, don’t forget to join us for What The Hell Wednesday tomorrow. There has to be something in the last week that’s made you say What The Hell?!

A Different View of Space Mountain

Posted on the August 27th, 2010 under All things Disney by Elle

While we were at Walt Disney World, we got to see what the inside of Space Mountain looks like. We were going to get in line to ride it, but they shut it down. Instead we hopped on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority or as we still call it, the Wedway People Mover.  Old habits die hard. It was pretty cool to see what Space Mountain looks like. Not very pretty, but once it started back up, it did become J-Man’s favorite ride of the whole trip.

Last night I decided to go back to coloring my hair, REALLYred.  It’s so dark it’s almost fuchsia.  What The Hell?  That’s what I said when I saw it, I looked in the mirror, thought to myself how red it was, and then said, “oh well, what the hell?  Guess I’ll just go with it.”

Next Monday the boys go back to school.  That means I have to get both of them ready and on the bus by 6:40 a.m.!  What The Hell????  I am not looking forward to that, and doubt they will make the bus much!

I have so many email accounts, it’s ridiculous.  I don’t even look at half of them, I hate email.  I don’t mind texting, because it’s short and immediate.  Emails are like work.  I have a comcast email, a yahoo, a work email, a blue monkey butt one, and a google one for football.  What The Hell?  I have no interest in reading any of them!

Elle

Um, ya, don’t bother emailing Stacy at her BMB adddress. She never ever checks it and it’s almost been terminated at least once because of non-use. What The Hell Stacy?

While we were at Disney, I saw this woman walking around with an unusual pedicure. Instead of having pink nails and white tips, she had black tips. Ewwwwwwwwwww! It just looked like she had really dirty toenails! What The Hell dirty toenail lady???!! It just totally almost made me projectile vomit. Still skeeves me out just thinking about it. So you can count me out of the black toenail tips style.

 

Blue Monkey Sisters Open Sky Shop

Posted on the August 25th, 2010 under Blue Monkey Sisters Open Sky Shop by Elle

I did a quick post while I was on vacation about our newest venture. We would love to have our own little store, stocked with all the things we love, but since we live 400 miles apart, setting that up would be next to impossible. With Blue Sky we are able to partner with suppliers and have a virtual shop of things we love. The next best thing. Be sure that we will only have items that we would or have bought for ourselves. We’ll have a permanent page for items and also put up a weekly post highlighting some of the items.

We know some of you have already started back to school and yes, we’re not ashamed to admit that we’re a little jealous. Our kids are still trying to hold onto summer by their fingernails and are kicking and screaming all the way.

 Here are a few things items from Mimi the Sardine . According to their website their items are made with 100% organic cotton. The whimsical prints are from European fabric and assembled in the USA. Sissy has already picked out her favorite re-usable lunch bag that she wants for the first day of school.

J-Man sometimes has trouble getting his sister’s attention. This is usually how it goes

J-Man: Blah, blah, blah, Yoshi, blah, blah, watch me play my video game, blah, blah, Mario.

Sister:  {complete silence}

J-Man: Hello?

Sister  {more complete silence}

J-Man: Hello? Can you hear me?

Sister:  {nothing}

J-Man: Hello? Are you death?

Makes me laugh every single time.

Today is my one year anniversary of what I refer to as my year of pain. No celebrations, confetti or parties because really, who would celebrate that?

I just saw a commercial for an upcoming Phineas & Ferb episode. Doofenschmirtz and Perry totally team up to take out vampire ninjas. Is it sad I want to see it? C’mon, ninja vampires, who wouldn’t want to see it?

I have to admit that I’ve lost my car keys. I haven’t been able to find them since we got home from vacation. I’ve gone through everything and they just aren’t there. I tried to call the lost and found at Fort Wilderness but just got the answering machine asking me to leave a message with my site #, phone number and a description of the item I lost. Then they sign off with “Have a magical day!” It’s going to have to be magical if I’m ever going to want to drive my car again. My husband isn’t going to continue letting me use his keys forever.

Stacy

Ever wonder why gay guys have that accent/lisp thing going on?  I mean does that come standard with being gay?  I’m not being mean, I like gay guys, I just don’t understand why they talk like that.  I guess it’s the same as when you’re from the South, you just talk that way.

I noticed the other day when I see some one’s name and it’s Chinese or of Asian origin I have to pronounce it out loud.  I don’t know why, but I do it all the time.  Weird.

Did you know that if you take your right foot and turn it clockwise in a circle, while trying to draw a 6 on a piece of paper, your foot will turn the other way?  You know you’re trying to do it right now.

Kibbles and Bits dog food is made with industrial laxative, just ask my dog.  He’s the one rubbing his ass all over the backyard.

Yes I was M.I.A. yesterday for RTT, which is too bad because I actually had a few random thoughts.  There’s always next week.  I’m sure I have some WTH moments from the past week!  Over the weekend we went to an amusement park for my youngest son’s birthday.  I didn’t want to take the camera because I was afraid it would get broken or wet, so I just used the camera on my cell phone.  That worked fine, but for some reason my computer will not save the pictures!  What The Hell??  I open the pictures, hit save and end up with a blank picture!!!  What the hell is wrong with this stupid computer???  I cannot save any of the pictures I took!

The other day at work I was standing next to the printer trying to help someone fix it.  Well, there is this woman at work that no matter what you’re doing, she thinks she has the right of way.  Most of the time she barges right through without saying anything.  That day she stood behind me, made the “clear the throat” sound and said “EXCUSE ME” real loud.  What The Hell?  Can’t you see I’m in the middle of doing something here, I can’t move out of the way at the moment and I’ll move when I’m done???  I said, “Sorry, I’m a bit busy trying to fix this, if you can wait a sec I will move when I am done.”  To which I got the extremely loud sigh that she makes that reminds me of Darth Vader taking a deep breath….no offense.

So can anyone get a show on t.v. now?  What The Hell?  There’s a bunch of cupcake shows, Little People taking care of pit bulls (which if you ask me is a bad thing because one of those dogs could eat them in one bite), Swamp Men, Axe Men, Gay Men…….You name it, there’s a stupid reality show about it!

Elle

I’m turning Amish. I’m shunning one of my dogs. He’s dead to me, well, except for the feeding and walking crap, he’s dead to me. Now, we were gone for 16 days. When we got home my dog was terrified of me. Completely terrified. Like I was some zombie about to eat his brain, if he actually had a brain. I couldn’t believe it. What The Hell??!!! When our Disney Daughter came upstairs the dumb-ass dog turned inside out with pure joy. Ya, she’s been gone since the end of January.

We brought home a few things from Disney for my parents. I gave my mother a cute tote bag and after I passed it to her I saw it still had the anti-shoplifting ink tag. What The Hell??!! Hello! Emporium people, you kind of ruined that gift. Now it looks like I shoplifted her gift. My mom said she’d still use it, but she won’t. She’ll be too afraid that people will think she stole it. Kind of inconvenient don’t you think. It’s not like I can bring it back to where I bought it.

Not sure if Stacy is stopping by for this RTT. Apparently she has a life on Monday nights and doesn’t have any Tuesday randomness. Whatev

We got home late Sunday night and I’m still recuperating. I have no idea how my husband got up and went to work on Monday morning.  I have no idea because I was sound asleep and never heard a thing. I spent Monday doing laundry, unpacking, feeding children who are constantly hungry and are constantly asking “What can I have?” I feel like a waitress being asked what today’s specials are. It doesn’t matter how many times I tell them, they still ask an hour later. Really, again? Nothing new has magically appeared in our pantry or fridge in the last h0ur. The choices are same! But no, I have to list them all over again. Same thing is on the schedule for today.

A few random observations from our vacation

A lot of kids throw up at Walt Disney World. I swear we were seeing kids throwing up left and right. The worst was while we were at the Magic Kingdom. Some poor little girl barely made it out of the restaurant we were eating in. Then she was outside the door where we had a perfect view of everything. Glad we didn’t have to deal with any of that personally.

Disney has better quality soap and shampoo at the more expensive resorts.

According to my husband I took 1296 pictures while we were away. He did buy me a new camera to take lots of pictures. Anyone want to see them? I didn’t think so.

Even though we had a night at the Polynesian without our children it’s completely impossible to get away from any children at Walt Disney World. For some reason the place is just swarming with them. At least our room was kid free until the next morning when we went and got them.

At the beginning of the week I confess to golf cart envy. It seems like everyone at Fort Wilderness rented a golf cart to drive around. The place is absolutely huge and it was too far to walk to the pool, Trading Post, Settlement and Marina. But the bus transportation was quick and easy and it didn’t cost another $60+ per day. You have to figure that most days you’re only going to use it to drive to the main bus stop and then again from the bus stop back to your site. But they did look like they were fun to drive around in. We managed just fine without it.

It was great to see our Disney Daughter again and the kids were so excited. While we were away my husband had his birthday and we also celebrated our anniversary. She surprised us with tickets to the Luau at the Polynesian and a room for the night kid-free! It was so cool, fun, awesome and just the best. We have always wanted to stay there and see the show and it was just as great as we imagined. Thanks again DD!

In Case of Sudden Death!!!

Posted on the August 13th, 2010 under crazy crap by Stacy

 

sudden-death1

My work is currently getting ready to move our office to a new city.  So, because of this we have been going through stuff to save or throw out.  Today we came across a first aid kit.  Inside the kit was some really expired Alka Seltzers, sterile cotton (that had a date of 1940? maybe), and other expired medication.  I noticed a sticker that had information on what to do “In Case of Sudden Death.”  What?  Wait?  Sudden Death?  You mean they’re already dead?  Uh oh, that can’t be good!  I thought Sudden Death was what they did in fighting matches when there was a tie?  You know, Sudden Death Match(said in a deep dramatic tone)

Let’s begin……
#1 Put on Latex or Rubber gloves- I don’t know why, I guess so you don’t get death cooties on you.
#2 Establish Unresponsiveness- wait, didn’t you already say In Case of Sudden Death? I’m assuming they’re dead!
#3 Yell Out for Help - this is funny, obviously this was printed before the invention of 911. Put on your rubber gloves and yell HELP SOMEONE HAS HAD A SUDDEN DEATH!!
#4 Open Airway - be careful I’ve heard that when people die bodily fluids seep out of them….just sayin’
#5 Pinch Nostrils - well if they breath through their nose you just blocked their airway, but since they’re dead, I guess it’s okay.
#6 Give 2 Full Breaths - what?  Into their mouth?  Technically it doesn’t say to do that, maybe you’re suppose to just breath yourself, I mean  you must be tired from all that yelling for help!
#7 Feel for a Pulse - I don’t know about you, but shouldn’t you feel for a pulse BEFOREyou stick your mouth on theirs?  I mean, that could be sexual harassment or something!  This should really be #2 or something!
#8 Send for Medical Help - Obviously all that damn yelling for help didn’t work!  Maybe you could send Lassie to get Medical Help….too bad they didn’t have a phone number you could call to get help, that would be so much easier!
#9 Patient on a Firm Surface - Again, shouldn’t this be higher up on the list?  It would be hard to give them mouth to mouth if they’re sitting in their chair.  If you think about it, it definitely would look like you were doing something else to them if they were in a chair!
#10 Locate Hand Position - okay who’s hands are we talking about here?  And what position?
#11 Position Your Body - again with the positions, this is sounding worse and worse, shouldn’t you be worried about the dead body?
#12 15 Chest Compressions- to the dead body?  Ewww, oh wait, you’re wearing rubber gloves, you should be okay.
#13 2 Mouth to Mouth Ventilation’s- yea, sorry but I’m not putting my mouth on anyone’s mouth I work with.
#14 Repeat Compression & Ventilation’s - nope, sorry, this is not in my job description.
#15 Continue until the victim revives, additional help arrives, or until you are exhausted.

Okay, #15 is my all time favorite on the list!  “Or until you are exhausted?”  “Gee, I’m so exhausted  from yelling for help, and I’m just tired, guess I can give up now, I mean, it says I can!”
